C G Browne

Having studied business and economics at university, C G Browne spent most of her early working life in third sector financial management. Her passion and flair for troubleshooting, plus her fascination with behavioural dynamics, inspired her to set up her own business consultancy Primeval Business. In 2007, she met anthropologist Catherine Perigo who introduced her to the primitive mind for the first time. Since then she has avidly studied and written about primitive human psychology and behaviour while also exploring the social, environmental, and economic problems that modern life presents and how they link to the loss of primitive values, those which are inherent within the rest of the natural world. Her conclusions, which she presents in her written works, are distinctly unorthodox. She lives in rural Wales with her family.

Patrick Jasper Lee

Patrick Jasper Lee is Romani Gypsy and brings the folklore, mythology, and traditions of the ancient Romani people to much of his work. Originally published by HarperCollins in 2000, his first book 'We Borrow the Earth: An Intimate Portrait of the Gypsy Folk Tradition and Culture' took him around the world talking about the loss of tribal cultures (including his own) and the acute dislocation that our communities are experiencing as a result. He is a champion of the magical otherworld, a realm where he believes nature spirits, the Earth's soul, and humanity's true essence reside but which has been crushed by the impact of modern science and the global demise of indigenous cultures.

He regularly speaks at festivals and events and also runs workshops from his home in Wales.
